Planet Mozilla. The Mozilla Blog. Rock Your Firefox. Add-ons Blog. Early next year, Firefox will release Mozilla’s Manifest V3 (MV3). Therefore, it’s an ideal time to consider migrating your Manifest V2 extensions.

One of our goals throughout our approach to MV3 has been to gradually release new WebExtensions features that enable you to begin implementing APIs that are compatible with MV3. To this end, we recently released some exciting new features you should know about… MV3 changes you can make to your extension right now Event Pages In Firefox MV3, we’re providing Event Pages as the background script. We enabled Event Pages for MV2 (aka non-persistent background pages that can be closed and respawned based on browser events) in Firefox 106. Resiliency against unexpected system crashes.

Now that your background script is non-persistent, you need to tell Firefox when to wake up the page if it’s suspended. Mozilla Add-ons Forum • Index page.
